Hi, I think the Realtime Patch helps to get the 1000fps more stable. I have tested now the howto "perfect cs16...." the result is really worse. On our test box: quad9950, 1066mhz 8gb ram, the servers get no 500 - 700fps stable. With RT we can run 6 Servers with 80 active slots without any drops and stable 1000fps.
But both versions (with and without) creating segfaults on our boxes. Still dont know why. The debug.log is quiet -.- only says crash and this was it. I will going to install an other OS.
